      My computer is a 10 year old Dell XPS 8300.

      Actually I have a legacy Bios and a 1 terabyte SSD with MBR partitionning.

      So my question is: When I make my Win 11 USB installation key with Rufus, do I select MBR or GPT.

      Don’t complaint if you can install Win 11, a lot of people cannot.

      Windows 10 can be upgraded to RTM Windows 11 simply by using the Windows 10 installation media with the \sources\install.wim (or \sources\install.esd) replaced with the same file from the Windows 11 installation media

      Can you write a topic that explain the exact steps to do that.

      Also they say that you need a Microsoft account tou install Win 11.

      They really want to get control on everything. This pissed me off.

      The article say “System firmware UEFI, Secure Boot capable” so that means older PC with legacy BIOS won’t be compatible. What a good marketing strategy to force people to buy a new computer.
      It suck’s.

      I think I know what happened. When I was on 1909, I have installed a group policy editor that adds it to Home version and when I upgraded to 20H2, it has been disabled !

      This is weird because I swear that when I was on 1909, I was setting a  metered connection and then click on resume updates and they were appearing in the queue but they did not install and I had a “download”button. Also there was a notice saying “when youre ready to install these updates, click on dowload” !!! And this was on Win 10 1909 Home !
